<p>So obviously from what I've seen, SAT scores and GPA is important to the whole admission process. </p>

<p>But how about extracurriculars? How about legacy? Does the admission process look at this at all? This question might be answered through the application process, but I can't see the application because I think it's too early for me to sign up for it. Anyways, it would just make my life easier because the only problem I'm having is the SAT. I currently have a 1810 but I have time to practice until the next testing date (plus it was my first one.)</p>

<p>standardized tests are the most important (SAT and ACT). Your GPA is also matters. Everything else is irrelevant.</p>

<p>From what I’ve heard (and from my own experience) McGill is a number-crunching school, meaning that the most important things to them are the standardized tests and your GPA. I’d suggest looking into the ACT; I liked it a whole lot more than the SAT.
I’m pretty sure legacy isn’t even a factor, though.</p>
